Though the order No DHER-742-60 dated 31-05-2010 says that all these employees have been voluntarily retired, sources in the department said that they were retired following pressure from Minister for PHE Taj Mohi-ud-Din. "These employees were unable to attend duties outside the sub-division as they had been transferred recently so they were pressurized to opt for voluntarily retirement", department sources said adding that all of them have submitted a request application in the department for the same. "This is not forced retirement and all have been retired according to their own choice", Executive Engineer PHE Rajouri Swarn Singh said adding that the department has given joint farewell to all.
Sources said that department is also considering retirement of some more employees whose file is pending for approval of the competent authority.
Meanwhile district president of PHE Employees Association, Syed Altaf Hussain Shah has said that though these employees were retired, they have not been given any document. "This is not justice that a man who has given 30-40 years in department is going from it without getting retirement benefits", Shah said adding that the department has still not made their case for benefits.
